Speech reflection
I went to church this week and our speaker used presentation media. It was helpful because it put emphasis on the main points he was trying to get across. One of the points was that we should help eachother feel worthy or in other words compliment each other so there was a clip from friends that played on the screen of them giving compliments and what it should look like. Another way he used presentation media was in a PowerPoint all the main points would show up on the screen. Overall it was tell a story show the point on the screen and then explain it again. I found the media presentation help me focus in on what he was actually trying to say. I would say that it would depend on your learning style whether the media presentation can be distracting or not. For someone that learns better visually it will be helpful to have the media presentation, but if listening is your best way to learn and things in front of you are a distraction then I would say it will not be helpful. In conclusion media presentation was helpful at church and it helps me regularly.

I like how your example from church shows how sometimes a variation in types of media can be helpful. I know that in presentation media you are supposed to have consistency, but I also feel that if done properly some variation can keep the presentation fresh and the audience focused. Usually keeping a consistent rhythm and preserving one particular style is what works best in a speech, but personally, I feel that a speaker would be likely to keep my interest and attention if they switched things up once in a while (as long as they do it properly) because it would keep me listening and watching, wondering what was next.
